You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman

"That\'s for sure. Apart from the long-lost Nüwa Clan, only Aunt has achieved such a feat," Jiang Min sighed.

Donghuang Ying nodded. Few women could rise to such prominence, and most were men.

At this moment, an ethereal woman walked out, accompanied by two young girls.

"Those who have come from afar, we only have simple tea and plain food here. Please forgive us."

Everyone politely responded. After all, Meng Yao was about to become a Supreme God. In the past, they might have been disrespectful, but now they had to show respect unless the tribulation failed.

"Your accommodations have all been arranged. I hope you all have a pleasant stay here." After saying this, she gave a few instructions and left.

Donghuang Ying whispered, "Who is this woman?"

"She\'s Aunt\'s cousin, a rather powerful woman. Don\'t provoke her. She indulges in misandry," Jiang Min murmured.

Donghuang Ying thought, this woman must have been hurt by men. Otherwise, how could she harbour such intense hatred? Without love... where could hatred come from?

Just like himself, he used to hate the Empress deeply. Why didn\'t she marry him? But he later learned that such hatred was mostly rooted in love. He had fallen deeply in love with the Empress. In this life, he would do anything for her, even become a servant or a horse.

Back in the Voidless Empire, Ye Juetian returned to his sleeping quarters with great satisfaction after a secret meeting with Yi Yi.

Thinking about the sweet kiss he had just shared with Yi Yi, he felt incredibly happy. He had never been this happy in his entire life. Yi Yi\'s lips were so sweet...

With these thoughts, Ye Juetian sighed deeply. So, this was what it felt like to like a girl.

If only he were an ordinary person, no one would say anything.

"I\'m back," said Gong Yue, rising with a faint smile.

Seeing Gong Yue, Ye Juetian smiled slightly. "I really have to thank you."

"How would you like to thank me?" Gong Yue asked playfully with a mischievous look.

"Just now, Yi Yi was asking what you like. I plan to buy something and give it to you as a gift," Ye Juetian replied.

Thinking about it, Gong Yue was pondering. \'What do I like? I\'m afraid Yi Yi won\'t bear to give it to me. But it\'s okay; even if she doesn\'t give it, I can still snatch it.\'

"Yi Yi is truly a good girl. You should treat her well," Gong Yue said with a soft smile, appearing very sensible.

Ye Juetian\'s favourable impression of Gong Yue was also rising. Such goodwill was only between friends. After all, Gong Yue was currently helping him, and she was helping him as his fiancée. It was a great kindness.

"The night is getting late. Rest early," Ye Juetian unconsciously said.

"Then where will you arrange for me to sleep?" Gong Yue asked with a light smile.

One couldn\'t deny that Gong Yue was indeed very beautiful. If it weren\'t for Yi Yi\'s presence, Ye Juetian would definitely be interested.

After all, Gong Yue had the figure, the looks, the strength, and was obedient. Such a woman was rare in the world.

"Ah, I actually forgot. I\'m really sorry. Let me have my big brother arrange something."

"You\'re silly. If you let your big brother arrange, it means you\'re not satisfied with me," Gong Yue said teasingly, with a hint of playfulness.

Ye Juetian suddenly realised. He had been too happy and overlooked this matter.

"What should we do?"

"To make your big brother and mother feel at ease, we must stay together," Gong Yue suggested, taking on the role of an advisor. This was the scenario Gong Yue wanted—gaining Ye Juetian\'s trust.

"Stay together?" Ye Juetian frowned deeply. If he really lived with Gong Yue, Yi Yi would definitely find out. Even though Yi Yi would smile even if she was heartbroken, seeing her smile like that would still hurt him.

Gong Yue nodded, "Yes. If you want your big brother and mother to trust us, we must live together."

"But if we create such an illusion, pretend to be satisfied, and then let big brother and mother feel at ease, what about Yi Yi?" Ye Juetian questioned.

Gong Yue nodded, "We are to be engaged in the future. Although it\'s all fake, we have to act convincingly. Don\'t you agree?"

Ye Juetian didn\'t respond and fell into contemplation.

Gong Yue sighed softly and said, "If you really don\'t want to, I can go and explain the situation. I\'ll say that I\'m not interested in you, and I\'ll accept whatever consequences come my way."

"Don\'t!" Ye Juetian said firmly.

Hearing Ye Juetian\'s objection, Gong Yue was happy. She was quite skilled in taking care of girls.

However, Ye Juetian was actually thinking that it was hard to find a helper like Gong Yue. Even if she left, there might be a second one in the future. If that person would help him was still uncertain, so he couldn\'t let Gong Yue leave.

"Let\'s go. Rest inside," Ye Juetian suggested.

Gong Yue felt delighted, "Don\'t worry, I won\'t take advantage of you. I\'ll sleep on the floor."

Ye Juetian chuckled, "Look at what you\'re saying. I might take advantage of you instead."

"Do you dare?" Gong Yue stuck out her tongue, looking playful.

"I really don\'t dare."

"Haha, coward." Gong Yue giggled.

The surrounding palace maids heard the laughter and felt that they were a perfect match. The news of Ye Juetian and Gong Yue sharing a room would surely spread, especially since so many palace maids witnessed it.

Entering the room, Gong Yue softly said, "I\'ll sleep on the floor."

"Then how about this, there\'s a bed in the adjacent small room, you can sleep there," Ye Juetian said softly.

Gong Yue thought she would be arranged to sleep on the bed beside him but was sent to another place instead, feeling a bit disappointed.

"Okay. By the way, how do you plan to proceed in the future? Are we really going to pretend to be a couple?" Gong Yue suddenly asked.

Ye Juetian sighed, "For now, it\'s the only option. My big brother\'s power is beyond imagination; I won\'t be able to escape."

"Is your big brother that powerful?"

"Yes, his strength is beyond your imagination." Ye Juetian had a headache. If he hadn\'t asked his big brother to find a wife for him, things wouldn\'t have come to this.

"Oh, then get some rest."

"Yeah, you should rest early too."

Gong Yue entered her small room, closed the door, and her face gradually tightened.

\'Pretend to be a couple? That is non-existent. Ye Juetian, am I, Gong Yue, really not attractive to you? I don\'t believe it!\'

At this moment, Yi Yi was staying in the maids\' quarters, similar to a collective dormitory with many beds in a row.

Yi Yi had a smile on her lips, occasionally touching them. The sensation just now was so subtle that as she reminisced, she started feeling shy. She lightly bit her lip, covered her head with the blanket, thinking, Ye Ye is not shy at all.

While Yi Yi was lost in her thoughts, several maids walked in, chatting and laughing.

"I just saw Prince Ye and his fiancée talking and laughing. They seem so well-matched."
